Title: Alive in Southeastern Georgia Post by: baxley on May 11, 2006, 03:00:18 PM Hello fellow Bretheren!!
I am very glad to be a part of this website. Let me give you just a brief history of myself. It will sound very familiar. I was a wretched person always looking for that certain something to make me fill whole. Then one Sunday I attended a Charimatic Church with my husband and I was shocked. Never had I ever seen people worship with their hands raised and seemed so very happy. There was a banner hanging to the side of the altar that read 'JESUS IS LORD'. I had never heard that before. When I looked away from the banner it was on fire so I looked back, but it wasn't on fire. Everytime I looked away it was burning and glowing, but when I looked back it was perfectly normal. To say the least I was unnerved. Finally a man got up and began telling all that Jesus had done for him and he was crying tears of joy and rejoicing. This was very different from anything I had ever seen or heard in my life. A man crying tears of happiness of what God had done for him. It brought tears to my eyes. After church as we were driving home I began to weep and told my husband I wanted what that man had. So he turned the car around and he found the preacher. I accept Christ in the parking lot and it was for real. Nothing, absolutely nothing, has ever changed me so profoundly as that had. I was never the same again. The scripture talks about becoming a new creature in Christ and I am!!!! That was 20 years ago and have come along way in the Lord. He is the best most wonderful thing that has ever happened to me. I rely on Him daily and talk with Him daily. I AM SO GLAD GOD CHOSE ME ! Title: Re: Alive in Southeastern Georgia Post by: Amorus on May 11, 2006, 03:19:19 PM Amen!
